Baby's Applesauce

* Ingredients:
* 2 cooking apples
* 1/4 cup unsweetened apple juice or water

* Directions:
* Peel & quarter apples...cut out cores.
* Cut apples into 1 inch cubes & place in your Magic Bean Pot.
* Add juice or water.
* Add the lid & microwave on HIGH 4 - 5 minutes, until apples are very soft.
* Place apples & liquid in a blender or food processor & puree until smooth.
* Strain if necessary.
* Store in a covered jar in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or freeze.

* It's simple to prepare vegetables & fruits for your baby in the microwave using your Magic Bean Pot, that you might never buy store-bought again.  You have the assurance of knowing Exactly what is in your baby's food, & it is certainly the way to retain as many vitamins & nutrients as possible, since so little liquid is required & the cooking time is so short.

* One important tip:  when reheating the baby food, remember to just warm it, don't cook until boiling hot.  Stirring & testing are important.  Think in terms of seconds in the microwave, not minutes.  Store baby fruits & vegetables in small covered jars in the refrigerator.  Reheat in custard cups on Medium, stirring once or twice, 30 - 60 seconds.

* Make a large batch and put in ice cube trays and freeze. Then empty the tray into a freezer bag, remove the air and store. This makes it super easy to get just the right amount. And, even frozen it only takes a couple of seconds to heat in the microwave. You can freeze for about a month.

* Puree & strain vegetables & fruit with liquid as needed, depending on the age of the baby.  Younger babies need a smoother, more liquid texture.  If in doubt, consult with your pediatrician.
